It took me a while to get a decent shot together. Thanks to Shana for spotting this composition and letting me shoot it.

Ok, I decided to pick a winner for his month's challenge. It was tough. There are a lot of nice shots and it took a while, but only makes me look forward to next month.
I've decided to crown this one:
Great job everyone!
